In an attempt to study further the age-specific influence on the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal axis as well as the hypothalamo-pituitary-thyroid axis, we have now investigated young and middle-aged men, considering possible confounding factors. Both serum total testosterone, free testosterone and the total ratio of testosterone to sex-hormone binding globulin were significantly lower among middle-
Objectives. To study the in vitro stability of free and complexed forms of prostate specific antigen (PSA) in blood samples in order to establish guidelines for specimen handling, in particular for the clinical utility of the analysis of percentage free PSA. Methods. Blood samples were collected and processed to generate serum, heparin plasma, and EDTA plasma. Three different two-site immunoassays
Background: Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies associated vasculitides (AAV) are characterized by autoimmune small vessel inflammation. Eosinophils are multifunctional cells with both pro-inflammatory and immunoregulatory properties. Tissue activated eosinophils secrete cyto- and chemokines and form extracellular traps (EETs), they release free granules and produce reactive oxygen species. The
In hereditary Huntington's disease, a triplet repeat disease, there is extensive loss of striatal neurons. It has been shown that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) protects striatal neurons against a variety of insults. We confirmed that BDNF enhances survival and DARPP-32 expression in primary striatal cultures derived from postnatal mice. Furthermore, BDNF inhibited intracellular oxyradic
Popular Abstract in Swedish Svensk sammanfattning Slaganfall (stroke), hjärtstillestånd eller överdosering av insulin är tillstånd som leder till en minskning av syre- och/eller glukos till hjärnvävnaden. Då tillförseln av glukos och syrgas minskar, kan cellerna inte längre upprätthålla en normal energiproduktion. Eftersom en stor del av energin går åt till bevara den spänning som finns över cellIn this thesis mechanisms of neuronal damage were investigated in an experimental stroke model i.e focal ischemia. The influence of SD-induced calcium transients on neuronal damage were studied in animals with reduced energy supply. The influence of bioenergetic failure on K+e concentration and Ca2+e homeostasis were also investigated in transient focal ischemia. Moreover, the free radical formati
This Master’s thesis examines the outcomes of the new Free Choice policy with particular emphasis on whether giving residents the right to choose their providers of primary health care leads to a more equal distribution of primary health care accessibility. This study is based on the Secondary Analysis of assessment for vårdval (choice of health system) in Stockholm by Karolinska Institute (2010),

Arbetsrehabilitering Efterfrågan på evidensbaserade insatser har ökat markant i Sverige och Individual Placement and Support (IPS) är en av de högst prioriterade psykosociala insatserna i Socialstyrelsens nationella riktlinjer. Utbildningen har gått regelbundet sedan 2012 och fokuserar nu även på Supported Education. Särskild tonvikt i utbildningen kommer att läggas vid implementeringen av IPS i b
